The Autorité des marchés financiers defines the conditions under which general-purpose investment funds must inform investors and may be advertised, in particular by audiovisual means, or canvassed.
The articles of association or fund rules of general-purpose investment funds, as well as the documents intended for the information of their unitholders or shareholders, shall be drawn up in French. However, under the conditions set by the general regulations of the Autorité des marchés financiers, they may be drawn up in a language other than French that is customary in financial matters.
